Miguel, is this the sort of thing you are talking about wanting to be able to do in Jmol?

From something like this:

   4.910   4.910   5.402
   90.000  90.000 120.000
   SPGR =154 P 32 2 1    OPT = 1
   1 Si1     0.48078   0.48078   0.00000
   2 O2      0.15018   0.41459   0.11650

going to something like the first model at

http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/mo/acs2001/models.htm

? (That model is, in fact, derived from the above data, but not using Jmol.)

If so, we'll need to design a syntax for describing how many unit cells to include and in what direction.

Q: Does Jmol read cssr file formats? http://www.chem.cmu.edu/courses/09-560/docs/msi/modenv/D_Files.html#944777

I'm not sure how prevelent those are anymore.

I must say, it fascinates me that two coordinates and an understanding of the crystallographic parameters can generate so "complex" a structure.
